Hearing Li Chen's words.
Yu Qingnian said calmly, "Gods are very unrealistic for humans."
"But this world is already very strange. The appearance of Evil Gods means that there are gods in the world."
"They're all Evil Gods, though."
The title "Evil God" is synonymous with evil.
Li Chen fell into deep thought.
Is he evil? If the masked man inside him is truly Evil God, then what choice will he make?
The masked man granted him his current power.
They also taught him many principles and helped him understand many things.
But at this moment, he didn't know what would happen to the world if he were really released.
At this moment, Gu Cheng smiled and said, "Actually, there's no need to think so much. In the end, gods haven't truly appeared in the world."
No one knows whether God truly exists in this world.
"But since there are no gods in this world, we humans have a chance."
"By the way, Qingnian, what level of cultivation have you reached now?"
Yu Qingnian realized that the question had reached the realm of cultivation, he was momentarily at a loss for words.
He took a sip of water from the table beside him and said, "Wasteland Realm."
"The Wasteland Realm?" Li Chen was somewhat puzzled. In his mind, the Calamity Realm was already the limit, so what was the Wasteland Realm?
Gu Cheng's eyes widened in surprise, but he still explained, "You should know the top four in the Human Race's Sequence User Realm."
"These are the Dripping Water Realm, the Looking River Realm, the Withered Sea Realm, and the Calamity Realm."
"But above the Calamity Realm, there is another realm, the Wasteland Realm."
"The Wasteland Realm is not a realm that can be reached through cultivation alone..."
At this moment, Gu Cheng paused.
"But it's too early to tell you now. You'll know when you reach the Calamity Realm."
"And what I just said about humanity having an opportunity is this opportunity."
"The realms beyond the Wasteland Realm may be called the God Realm, but no one has ever known how to advance to the God Realm."
"If God Realm truly emerges among humanity, perhaps it will be time for us to sound the horn of counterattack."
Yu Qingnian, standing to the side, shook his head. If it were really as simple as Gu Cheng said, then the Human Race should have already produced a God Realm expert.
But even the Wasteland Realm can't muster enough people right now.
It's easier said than done.
Li Chen didn't think too much about it anymore. He was just a newbie in the Looking River Realm, and the only way to protect himself now was to quickly improve his strength.
The Evil Cult came to arrest him this time has made him feel threatened.
The Evil Cult wouldn't send Looking River Realm to capture him; this time, they directly dispatched several Calamity Realm experts. Fortunately, Yu Qingnian and Gu Cheng, nothing happened. So what about next time?
Li Chen knew in his heart that he needed to improve his strength as soon as possible.
At this moment, Gu Cheng calmly said, "Young Chen, you don't need to worry too much about Evil Cult organizations. Whether it's inland or here, there are powerful figures in charge."
"And given your current condition, Qingnian will protect you."
"But if you can also choose to stay with me, it just so Forbidden... I happen to need an assistant."
Li Chen: "..."
Yu Qingnian: "..."
He could have phrased it more tactfully.
The Ruined City was as bright as ever at night.
Countless robots are repairing the damaged parts of the city.
Li Chen sat on the high balcony, quietly watching the red moon hanging in the sky.
This ordeal is now more than halfway over.
Things like today shouldn't happen again.
They're about to return to the inland. They've been here for a while, not too long, not too short either.
Each student's mindset has changed to some extent.
However, the mysteries surrounding him only increase.
Perhaps he should go look for that masked man again.
The words had barely left his lips when his consciousness sank into darkness.
With a "click".
Li Chen stepped into the void; he was already familiar with the environment and the emptiness here.
He walked directly to the dark door.
The oppressive aura and the aura released by the Black Mist that he once felt no longer had much of an effect on him.
He could even sense that the Black Mist seemed to have a sense of closeness to him.
Knock knock~
Li Chen knocked on the dark door.
To his surprise, the door opened by itself.
This time, he didn't need the Black Mist to guide him; he went straight in.
As Li Chen walked, sensing the dense Black Mist within, he pondered several things.
Is the masked man truly Evil God, and is this gate truly Forbidden Door?
He went deeper and deeper with each step he took.
An open door inside seemed to have been opened as if it knew of his arrival.
The masked man's voice came through.
"Come in."
I know why you've come this time.
Li Chen's expression remained unchanged. He knew that perhaps every time he entered this place, he was being observed by the masked man.
He just hadn't paid any attention to me before.
The surging Black Mist floated on the ground.
He went inside.
The space inside was so large that he couldn't see the end.
Countless bizarre statues stand here.
Li Chen knew that these statues were Eerie Monsters, and very powerful Eerie Monsters at that.
He then looked in the direction from which the sound had come.
The masked man sat on a stool formed of Black Mist, seemingly having been waiting for his arrival.
With a wave of his hand, a stool formed from Black Mist appeared behind Li Chen.
"Please sit down."
Li Chen pursed his lips and sat down.
It felt as if the masked man was entertaining him, a feeling he truly didn't feel comfortable with.
After a moment of silence...
The masked man spoke, a glass suddenly appearing in his hand filled with a red liquid, resembling blood.
"Are you wondering if I'm Evil God?"
"Or perhaps you're wondering if this is the Forbidden Door you know about today."
Li Chen nodded, unsurprised.
The masked man smiled, placed his hand on his mask, and slowly removed it.
In an instant.
Li Chen was stunned; he saw the face beneath the mask.
He was just a little... confused.
This face is like another version of him, only much more weathered, and while he is black, this masked man is white.
The masked man laughed, "Don't be surprised. I've said it before, you are me, and I am you."
"However, you now represent humanity, while I represent another side that you are unaware of."
Li Chen quickly calmed down. It wasn't that he couldn't accept it, but rather that he was somewhat surprised. Perhaps it was just that he possessed the ability to change his appearance here.
He calmly asked, "So, are you Evil God or not?"
